What Went Down During Gordon Sondland’s Testimony

Sondland mentions that he expressed concerns about the withheld military aid to Republican Sen. Ron Johnson. Others have mentioned Johnson as an actor in these events as well. But of course, he will be one of the jurors voting on whether to remove Trump for office or not during the likely Senate trial. How will Johnson navigate that awkward role?

Sondland is roping Sen. Ron Johnson, Pompeo and Giuliani fairly deeply into this scandal, more than other witnesses.

Sondland is ambassador to the European Union, which means that Ukraine is not actually part of his portfolio. He’s trying to justify why he was involved so deeply in Ukraine diplomacy in the first place by saying that Europe’s security depends on Ukraine.
